H/H match update for episode 1417: ... ~~~Today's action: "A cold" from a giggling Scoey secured our champion's third victory. (Did you see Scoey's watch? It still looks cool and fashionable today, nearly 45 years later.) *Today's audience match question: "Wine and________"* My thoughts: (Roses, Song, Cheese) The celebs: Charles (Roses), Loretta (Dine), Brett (Women and Song) The choice: Roses The answers: Dine, Cheese (Ha!), Roses She scores a $500 Audience Match for the first time! The wheel didn't get enough of David yesterday, so it chooses him again! This time for double, the big $10K! Stats: This is David's second H/H question. His first yesterday was not a match (although, in my opinion, he gave the best possible answer). *Today's H/H question: "Now and_______"* (I'm torn. My first thought was now and then, but then I thought of now and forever. I'll stick with my first thought.) David seems equally torn. He begins writing quickly, but he's looking at Brett and seems to have written more than one answer and is seeking some feedback from her (which doesn't seem to be forthcoming). He rants a moment about how tough it is, then he, like me, decides to go for his first answer. Ding. The champ looked pensive when the camera first cut to her as David was deciding. Now, she seems ready, but perhaps less than confident. Her answer: "Now and always." It sounds valid to me, but I don't think it's terribly likely. Major groans from the audience. David looks stricken. Was that an alternate answer he had discarded? Is he just pulling a fake-out? When Gene asks her first thought, she says "Now and then" and the audience applauds. It sounds like my answer matches the audience's, at least. Well, let's see where David's mind took him... Wow, he had my second thought: "Forever" No H/H match today. ~~~In Scoey and David's honor, here's the complete list of all celebs (in alphabetical order) who have been chosen for the H/H match so far without matching: (An asterisk before their name indicates they've "retired" from MG, and their H/H stats are now complete.)

There was no H/H in missing episode 1035, as we learn in 1036. These stats do, however, include results of episodes 1309 through 1317, found on channels other than this one.

And I think the judges awarded a "pity match" to "mirror" and "medicine cabinet"! Honestly, the vast majority of mirrors have nothing to do with medicine cabinets.
@@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687 Yeah, by being drunk, obnoxious, cackling, camera-hogging, and just a big nuisance. She may have been having fun, but it was at everyone else's and the show's expense.
David Doyle did indeed seem to have a good time, but remember Kaye Stevens? Wow, she was a stand-up comic's dream audience member! I totally enjoyed all her episodes because of her infectious laughter.
🤣Brett does a great imitation of David Doyle!😂 And Barbara is so HOT, she's the splitting image of Mexican singer and soap opera actress Daniela Romo.😊👍❤
Totally Agree,, Thought the same thing,, Flat Chest and all.. LOL I think that she knows she does resemble her.,,, and was waiting for someone to say it..
Days of 🍷 and 🌹 🌹, they don't make movies like that anymore. Either I'm colorblind or Gene is, it looks to me that Scoeys shirt is orange. Aww 💩 they would have to come up with a question with an obvious answer BLACK 🙀, funny thing Scoey didn't say a word about it, and NOBODY answered it
Yes, that particular quip did not age well. Still, there was no mean or evil intent and Scoey didn't seem to take any offense. Well, everyone says dumb and/or thoughtless things, even CNR once in a blue moon.
Scoey caught a case of the giggles.
RIP Scoey.. I remember him from the Richard Pryor movie “JoJo Dancer”. An underrated comedian and so handsome. ♥️

Scoey is the best
I love Scoey!
Ms. Flagg is so beautiful 🥰
Scoey (13:12): "..mirror." *unknowingly flips the bird*
And I think the judges awarded a "pity match" to "mirror" and "medicine cabinet"! Honestly, the vast majority of mirrors have nothing to do with medicine cabinets.
I think David Doyle had the most fun on this show, and I still love me some Scoey.
No, Brett Somers had the most FUN on this show..
@@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687 Yeah, by being drunk, obnoxious, cackling, camera-hogging, and just a big nuisance. She may have been having fun, but it was at everyone else's and the show's expense.
@@proud_brettsomersfanclub8687 drunks always have fun, they just don't remember it
David Doyle did indeed seem to have a good time, but remember Kaye Stevens? Wow, she was a stand-up comic's dream audience member! I totally enjoyed all her episodes because of her infectious laughter.
🤣Brett does a great imitation of David Doyle!😂 And Barbara is so HOT, she's the splitting image of Mexican singer and soap opera actress Daniela Romo.😊👍❤
Scoey Mitchell died in March of this year, 2022. He was 90 years young. Born in 1930...
92
Scoey's giggle + Fannie's cackle = 2 funny!
The Love Boat episode with Gene and Fanny exists on youtube. it`s only in clips, and it looks cheesy, but it`s still fun.
It is too bad that most of these stars have died now.
Barbara looks like a younger version of Cher.
Totally Agree,, Thought the same thing,, Flat Chest and all.. LOL I think that she knows she does resemble her.,,, and was waiting for someone to say it..
That's what I posted in the previous episode, glad I'm not alone
Wine and PB&J. Grits was terrific.
Brett answers "transistor" for every robot/bionic question.
Days of 🍷 and 🌹 🌹, they don't make movies like that anymore. Either I'm colorblind or Gene is, it looks to me that Scoeys shirt is orange. Aww 💩 they would have to come up with a question with an obvious answer BLACK 🙀, funny thing Scoey didn't say a word about it, and NOBODY answered it
3:49 Not Charles's finest moment.
Dang. You are SO right. That was pretty horrible.
I used to watch this show.. but can you imagine that being said today(2019) and the backlash.
Yes, that particular quip did not age well. Still, there was no mean or evil intent and Scoey didn't seem to take any offense. Well, everyone says dumb and/or thoughtless things, even CNR once in a blue moon.
Never understood why Brett looked younger in the late seventies and much older in the early seventies when she was younger. Maybe a little work done😮
That contestant reminds me of Cher
Snap, Crackle and Drop.
It’s a she said he said deal.
A Cher look alike .
Does anyone know..what has happened to Mr.Scoey Mitchell?
He's still with us, one of the sadly ever-shrinking number of surviving recurring Match Game panelists.
He is dead
Yes..I know..Kevin D..Poor Scotty..left us recently.
"Hot Lips"?
Charles became pompous by this time.
That 1st question was very lame.
This show had noticeably worse questions than most.
